Changing $TMPDIR

Description:From the "How to run index jobs 2009 nov 02" document - To move $TMPDIR: Create a new file and then change the $TMPDIR entry in ../alephe/aleph_start. Example: Define a /aleph15/tmp and then change:

Note: After changing aleph_start, you need to exit and re-log-on in order for the change to take effect. In addition, if you are submitting the indexing job through the GUI Cataloging Services, you will need to restart the www_servers (util w/3/2) and the batch_que. Running aleph_shutdown and aleph_startup will, of course, do all of these things

What exactly do I need to do for the change of the TMPDIR to take place? Do I just need to restart the www_servers and batch que? I'd like to avoid restarting if possible.

Resolution:I will change this section to say the following:

To move $TMPDIR: Create a new directory and then change the $TMPDIR entry in ../alephe/aleph_start. Example: Define a /aleph15/tmp/ directory and then change:

# setenv TMPDIR ${ALEPH_MOUNT}/a${ALEPH_VERSION}_$ALEPH_COPY/tmp

setenv TMPDIR /aleph20/tmp

Note: After changing aleph_start, since TMPDIR is used by various servers, daemons, and batch jobs, you need to run aleph_shutdown and aleph_startup to make the change take effect.
